The Truth About Reiki Glutathione

The truth about REIKI GLUTATHIONE

I’m pretty sure you have heard of the Glutathione branded as “Reiki”.
It has 600mg and 900mg claiming to be manufactured in JAPAN.

What do you know about Reiki?
Have you ever questioned the product that you have been using, buying and selling??
I have. and I will share you those questions and I will share you the answers.

Let’s first tackle the writing about “Reiki Glutathione” that everyone have been reading.

“Tired of your glutathione IV that is not working? Try Reiki glutathione IV/IM. Find why it is the best in the market?

REIKI GLUTATHIONE originates in Japan, the makers of purest glutathione. Have you ever notice why Filipinas worked in Japan has younger, whiter and more beautiful skin when they get back? It is because they use glutathione.

Reiki glutathione is named after who discover glutathione Dr. Reiki. From the name itself Reiki which means sacred energy, Reiki glutathione occured.

Reiki Glutathione is 100% pure and natural reduced glutathione. Reduced glutathione is the only form of glutathione that has side effect of whitening. It is also 100% lyophilized. Reiki glutathione is stable even closer to expiration.Other brands reduced its effectiveness when closer to expiration. It undergo nano-processed technology to make it more absorbable to the cellular level. Thus it makes 5 to 8 times more effective.

It is also the only glutathione that is suitable for nebulization. For people who are smokers or with lung diseases (except asthma) nebulization is more effective route of administration to increase surfactant in the lungs, to prevent cancer and to detoxify lung toxins. For whitening and anti-aging, reiki is 5 to 8 times faster. Assay test results reveals 98%. (2% is loss due to testing procedures).”

1ST. Have you ever searched on google who the hell is Dr. Reiki?
as they’re claiming that HE IS THE DISCOVERER OF GLUTATHIONE??!

Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins – Among the many contributions Hopkins made is the discovery (1922) and characterization of glutathione that is described in this Journal of Biological Chemistry (JBC) Classic Paper. It had been recognized that glutathione underwent reversible oxidation-reduction, which involved a disulfide linkage between two molecules of GSH in GSSG.

Source: http://www.jbc.org/content/277/24/e13.full

It’s clearly stated that Hopkins Discovered Glutathione, and not some Doctor named Reiki.

2nd. Have you ever wonder what Reiki means? aside from thinking that it was the Discoverer?

“Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by “laying on hands” and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive”

Reiki is basically a healing process by hands that is popularized in Japan, and it is NOT because of the so-called-dicoverer-DR.REIKI.

3rd. Have you ever searched about this “REIKI INTERNATIONAL LTD” ??

I have. Why don’t you search it right now?
NOTHING. NOTHING will appear, DOES IT REALLY EXIST??

4th. Do you really believe that it was manufactured in Japan?
Prove it! I bet they can’t, and i can prove they it’s not.

*Why don’t they put the “Manufacturer and its location”?
Normally, as BFAD’s requirement, you should put/print in the box the Manufacturer and the location of the company,
something like from Saluta,

Manufactured by:
Shandong Luye Pharmaceutical Co. LTD – Shandong, China
Distributed by:
Luye Pharma group INC – Singapore

So, another question is, what If something happened to you, and you want to file a demand, where can you go? who are you going to look for? NO ONE, because they don’t have the identity, they don’t have office, no website. Now, shouldn’t we be worried??

5th. They are saying it’s “PYROGEN FREE”
It’s so funny how people are getting attracted to this because it’s Pyrogen Free. DO you know what Pyrogen is?

Pyrogen – A substance that produces fever.

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/pyrogen

Basically it is a substance that produces heat in our body, and when we inject Glutathione in our body, it never gives us heat and I have never heard of anyone who got a fever from Glutathione, I’m sorry to say but it is BULLSHIT! You can ask the Doctors, Doctors of all people, should know this! This is why Doctors don’t use Reiki, or I should say some Doctors are using this too, they are blinded.

6th. Just because I am very curious of the things that I use, I requested an information if Reiki is regIstered in FDA (Food Drug Administration) or at least if they have pending application, guess what, see for yourself 🙂

Kojic Acid Skin Cream – Natural Skin Lightener – Evens Skin Tones

Kojic Acid Skin Cream is a powerful, high quality, skin lightener. It safely and naturally evens skin tone. It even lightens freckles and age spots. It is highly effective with long term use. This is a much better solution than hydroxyquinolone cream.

Kojic Acid was first discovered in Japan in 1989. It is a natural product that is derived from a mushroom found in Japan. It successfully lightens pigment spots and discolorations, evens skin tones, fights age spots, and lightens freckles. Kojic acid works by preventing the production of melanin in the skin. It penetrates the upper skin layers so that it stops the formation of pigment. This allows the upper layer of skin to lighten and at the same time the deeper layers remain discolored.

A clinical study was done on Treatment of Melasma with Kojic Acid (Dermatol Surg v 25, 1999) in Singapore on 40 Chinese women. Melasma is a non-cancerous disorder that causes dark patches primarily on the face. The women were treated with two different gels. A gel containing 2% Kojic Acid was to be applied on one half of the face and a gel without the Kojic Acid was to be applied on the other half of the face. It was determined that greater results came from the addition of Kojic Acid in the treatment of Melasma. 60% of the Melasma cleared on the side of the face where the Kojic Acid was used compared to only 45.7% of the Melasma cleared from the use of the gel without the Kojic Acid. In 2 patients there was 100% clearance of the Melasma with the use of the Kojic Acid. Overall, Kojic acid further improves melasma.

Kojic Acid Skin Cream works best when used on a regular basis. The effects that come from the use of the cream will last as long as the product is being used. When used regularly, improvements in the skin should be seen within four to six weeks. Results may vary depending on one”s skin type. It is effective for any tone or skin type. It has antioxidant properties that are also good for the skin.

Kojic Acid Skin Cream is completely safe. It is a natural solution for lightening of the skin. It is a much safer and better solution that hydroxyquinolone cream. Hydroquinone is synthetic, not a natural substance, and it has been shown to possibly cause skin irritations. It was determined by the American Occupational Safety Hazard Administration (OSHA) to be highly toxic and when used without precautions it may cause mutations. It has been banned in Europe and limited to a maximum concentration of 2% in North America because of safety concerns.

So, if you are interested in lightening your skin or evening your skin tone naturally and safely use Kojic Acid Skin Cream. You should never pay more than $11.95 for a 2oz jar of Kojic Acid Skin Cream.

Bizarre Beauty Rituals

You normally wont find fish or bird droppings at the beauty section of big department stores. But these bizarre cosmetic ingredients have been used by Japanese women for ages to maintain their smooth, wrinkle-free complexion.

Now, trendy, high-end spas are offering these ancient remedies to both men and women who are willing to try anything in the name of beauty. These geisha-inspired treatments are the latest craze and are taking the beauty industry by storm.

For several centuries, Japanese women made their own skincare formulas at home with natural food products and the trade secrets of their female ancestors were passed from generation to generation. It is these ancient beauty rituals and renewed interest in the once denigrated geisha that have been resurrected in Japan and sold around the world, said Stephanie Rafanelli in the Daily Mail.

For starters, how about a goldfish pedicure? In this procedure, hundreds of miniature fish eat your feet right before your very eyes! But dont panic. Were not talking about piranhas here. The treatment uses doctor fish or gara rufa that nibble away dead, scaly skin in a matter of minutes.

Several beauty salons have picked up on this trend, which has long been used in Turkey, China, and Japan. The fish feed on dead skin, leaving the healthy, new skin exposed. The result is supposed to be soft smooth skin without a hint of roughness, explained Amy White in AssociatedContent.com.

Your most unpleasant flaky bits will be swiftly nibbled away in 15 unbearably ticklish minutes to reveal baby, clean feet. So the only thing youre likely to die of is laughing, Rafanelli added.

If you have a strong stomach, get a nightingale-dropping facial at Haris Salon in London. This 90-minute treatment will help lighten and brighten dull skin. The birds feces were used by early geishas and Kabuki actors to remove their thick make-up. Prior to applying, the droppings were dried in the sun. This has been replaced by ultraviolet light to sterilize them. At 135 its one of the most expensive facials but customers swear it leaves the skin shiny, clean, and fresh looking for the rest of the week. Plus its odor-free!

Nightingale droppings contain an enzyme called guanine which bleaches and heals the skin, which makes it such an effective facial ingredient. This amino acid’s benefits have long been known by Japanese geishas and Kabuki actors. Even monks have used these droppings to condition their exposed scalps, revealed White.

Believing that beauty is not only skin deep, the Takano Yuri Beauty Clinic in Japan is known for its Etiquette Up treatment that supposedly purifies the body. This weird beauty regimen promises to detoxify your internal organs and make your feces odor-free. Your bathroom visits will be more pleasant afterwards. Did I mention this procedure is also good for the skin and eliminates wrinkles? Indeed, Japan is the place to be for pretty feces I mean faces!
